I would hope there's chocolate inside! But there's no chance of me spotting it, I'm working ALL December for retailmas

Cocacolaandchocolate · 01/12/2015 17:42

I have no chance of spotting it, I'm recovering from a operation. At least 2 weeks no driving etc... I can only say I have seen the trucks on mumsnet

AllThePrettySeahorses · 01/12/2015 17:57

I'm in Liverpool, but I was in university this morning so couldn't take DD to see it. There are pictures on our local paper's website and it looks really nice, a grotto made out of chocolate.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 01/12/2015 17:59

Not seen it but am v partial to Whole Nut and Double Deckers.

needtothinkaboutseniorschools · 01/12/2015 18:00

So they're sending trucks out on almost all the days of advent (because advent started two days ago) and showering the country with exhaust fumes and not-very-tasty chocolate. Ho hum

MilkTwoSugarsThanks · 01/12/2015 18:02

All these Cadbury's Sponsored Threads yet nothing about the activities and stuff loads of us were picked to do.

WIBU to suggest MNHQ took a stand and said no more threads until it's sorted Wink

Thatrabbittrickedme · 01/12/2015 18:06

Oh yay. Another Cadbury promotion thread

FeelingSmurfy · 01/12/2015 18:30

Liverpool today, a chocolate grotto Smile

elpth · 01/12/2015 19:04

I would love it if the Cadbury's Advent Truck contained some proper old recipe dairy milk. I miss it so much!
I hope my Christmas wish comes true.

CopperPan · 01/12/2015 19:12

No chance of seeing it in London. I still love Cadbury's Twirl and Picnic bars so I'd look forward to seeing them if I could.

EmpressOfTheVulvaCupcakes · 01/12/2015 19:13

Haven't seen it, but I'd like it to be full of proper old-fashioned Cadbury chocolate as opposed to the Mondelez versions.

Failing that, I'll take Lindt.

ssd · 01/12/2015 19:21

we went to Cadbury world a few times when the kids were young and we loved the free chod bars they got at the beginning, so something like that, a few bars would be lovely.

whatdoIget · 01/12/2015 19:42

I had some aldi fruit and nut today which was lovely. Not seen the cadbury's van though.

rupert23 · 01/12/2015 19:48

havent seen it was hoping it may have some london venues. i would expect it to be full of chocolate yummy!

purplepandas · 01/12/2015 21:48

How annoying, I have just come from Bath. I peaked a day too early it seems! Fruit and nut plus Cadbury's caramel would be perfect in terms of being inside.

Maiyakat · 01/12/2015 22:06

I hope there are Wispa Golds inside - my favourite chocolate bar of all time!

Theimpossiblegirl · 01/12/2015 22:29

I'd much rather see this than the Coca Cola truck! I'm partial to a fruit and nut bar.
Chocolate

voyager50 · 01/12/2015 23:34

I haven't seen it yet but a truck full of chocolate buttons and twirls would be amazing!

ouryve · 01/12/2015 23:53

I didn't even know it was a thing.

EasterRobin · 02/12/2015 04:59

I've not seen one, but I'd like it to be full of chocolate sculptures. Maybe of some local landmarks.

MakeTeaNotWar · 02/12/2015 09:44

Not seen it yet but twirls are my favourite!!

CheeseEMouse · 02/12/2015 10:09

A mega supply of chocolate buttons to bribe the toddler with re potty training would be brilliant...

Quills · 02/12/2015 13:37

I've not seen it, but I'd love to see the return of the white chocolate Flake bars!

Pammyriley · 02/12/2015 15:03

Yes I have spotted the truck on the Internet 😕 is it comin to preston? ?

StickChildNumberTwo · 02/12/2015 16:04

Oooh, a whole truck full of chocolate (I hope) - that would be worth seeing. I'm at home with a 4 week old and justifying lots of chocolate consumption on the basis that it's good for breastfeeding (ssshhhhh, don't disillusion me), but the possibility of spotting this might get me out of the house if it heads our way.
